wow…good on you for getting back to everyone.
you’re like mick jagger replying to all his fan mail…he’ll get around to mine soon i’m sure…
Koofer44 replied
Haha! Does he have a good track record for that? Yeah, if I’m not mistaken, redbubble just added the ‘reply’ option. Before, I’d comment back and no one would see it unless they went back to my photo. THanks!
Oran
Heres a copy of the home page you were on. I have it because my picture made it on there the same day as well!

Thank you so much for that! It means a lot to me! Congrats on being up there also. :)
Rosina Lamberti
This is just incredible!
Derek Flynn
I totally didn’t entitle this one. Thanks, though! Congratulations, too, as it’s about damned time you were prominently featured somewhere other than the well-traveled walls of a coffee shop.
Koofer44 replied
Really? Cuz I’m pretty sure it was you who titled it. I believe you though. Was it Erik or my dad then?.... Glad you’re here too!
Derek Flynn
This guy did, at least according to its description at deviantART. I meant—congratulations re. being featured on the front page. I saw it while it was up and saved a screenshot of it under “Rachael Finally Begins to Conquer the World.”
SD Smart
Very ‘Fight Club’... Great action.
Koofer44 replied
Oooh, I should title it that. Thank you!

Does this mean it was featured in the group? I didn’t get a notification nor did I see it in the group?
Dan Elbourne 12 days ago
this really is fantastic. it reminds me of comics that i used to read in days gone by :)
Koofer44 replied 11 days ago
That’s a GREAT response. I love thinking that it’s cartoonish because comics are so animated and simple and those are both things I love in photos. Thanks!

Hi there… it was featured in the group back at the very beginning when it opened. You’ll notice this picture on page 11 of the featured pages in the group (all images featured in the group stay featured in the group.)
Koofer44 replied 10 days ago
Great! Thanks! Sorry, I just didn’t see it I guess. Thank you for featuring my work. :) It’s very much appreciated.
